Benny Goodman plays a number of clarinet solos and in conversation with David Frost discusses many memories and anecdotes related to his life including when he began first playing the clarinet at age nine, his first work doing an impression of Ted Lewis playing "When My Baby Smiles at Me," early influences in his life such as King Oliver and other well known orchestras at the time, his memorable meeting with Bix Beiderbecke, wonderful memories during his reign at the Paramount Theatre, and the privilege of playing with Toscanini.
